strand hotel swakopmund - namibia - presentation - october 2014
DESCRIPTION
The Strand Hotel Swakopmund with its extensive, unique and creatively entertaining Restaurants, Bars, Deli, Lobby-Lounge, Sea Facing Terraces, Beach Kiosk and state of the art Conference & Banqueting Center, all set on the Mole, a historic and iconic site surrounded by Ocean on three sides, is a social epicenter and destination in itself for all visitors to and residents of Swakopmund. Its architectural inspiration finds its roots deep in Namibian German history and reflects this in a tasteful contemporary manner. The interiors are residential in nature, and the brief to all designers involved was to create a non-hotel hotel. One as charming and welcoming as the town it is located in. Simply very warm and comfortable, and as they say in German: “gemütlich” providing a genuine “sense-of-place” atmosphere adding to any Namibian visit. Arriving at the Strand is a dramatic experience as one passes through its 13m high and 9m wide Ocean View Atrium which travels right through the Hotel offering sea views at either end. Off this Atrium Lobby at Reception, consisting of three individual desks, an inviting open fireplace rounds off the residential feel and warm welcome. Every aspect of the Strand Hotel Swakopmund is being developed according to international four-star standards. It will very possibly be the benchmark against which all hotels or lodges in Namibia will be measured. “The Strand Hotel Swakopmund is not simply being built, it is being sculptured.”TRANSCRIPT

Its architectural inspiration finds its roots deep in Namibian German history and reflects this in a tasteful contemporary manner. The interiors are residential in nature, and the brief to all designers involved is to create a non-hotel hotel. One as charming and welcoming as the town it is in. Simply very warm and comfortable, and
as they say in German: “Gemütlich” with a genuine “sense-of-place”.
Every aspect of the Strand Hotel Swakopmund is being developed according to international four-star standards. It’s very possibly going to be the benchmark against which
all hotels/lodges in Namibia will be measured.
The Strand Hotel Swakopmund is not simply being built, it is being sculptured.
